Taiwanese technology company Asus has today launched its 6Z smartphone in India. The key highlight of the Asus 6Z smartphone is its rotating camera module that enables the user to click photos using the primary cameras of the handset. Since the device has a 48MP primary camera, this makes it all the more better because who wouldn’t like to click selfies using a sensor with that kind of resolution. Other than this, the handset is powered by the most powerful processor in the world – Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 SoC – and that means that the performance of the smartphone is extremely smooth. With such powerful specifications and a starting price that is less than Rs 35,000, the device gives a direct competition to OnePlus 7. It also inevitable competes with Samsung Galaxy A80, that also comes with a rotatable camera setup, however, that has not been launched in India so we don’t know about its pricing yet.
